Shout out to Mrs. Pickett and the CES staff on two amazing Field Days!! We give you 1st Place for some serious funmaking! 👏 🏆

And, a HUGE thank you to our vendors who helped fuel us, energize us, and make us look cute! Morning Dove Coffee, Betsy Design Co., Snow Daddys, and Bowden Handmade all donated a portion of their proceeds back to our CES PTO totaling over $1000!!! Wowza! 💚🤍

And, last, but not least, we SEE you CHS Welding and Cosmetology! You all are crazy talented and we appreciate your time in letting us view and purchase your creations as well as providing facepainting and hair tinsel. You all truly wowed us with your skills!

Well done, Hornets! 💚🤍 Our nest is the best!!!!
